ratemycop.com appears to be offline as of 5-7-13. I have no details, but cannot access the site. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 99.67.228.210 (talk) 18:55, 7 May 2013 (UTC)

:There seems to be a connection issue. I wonder why that hasn't been resolved yet? --76.212.149.187 (talk) 01:05, 27 June 2013 (UTC)

Rate My Cop Seems to Be No More

OK, RMC's website has been gone for at least a few months now. Why hasn't anyone put this in the main article?

I know why! Everyone's scared to! Well, in that case I'm not going to, either.--76.212.146.224 (talk) 02:46, 20 May 2014 (UTC)

:Well, now it seems to be back online! Or, partially on line, anyway. The Forums are hard to :access, and finding a specific police department might not work too good, but it's there now.

:So, why isn't this fact included in the main article? Or, at least change the "inactive" to something else in that little box on the page's upper right corner? If everyone else is too scared to, I'm not about to, either. That's the end of that subject! I did find this post, though, and it dates back to about when RMC started having connection problems: http://ratemycop.com:/index.php?option=com_fireboard&Itemid=162&func=view&id=78410&catid=11 . Not long after this post appeared they started getting a lot of weird spam on the forums, then basically the whole thing shut down. Lots of people think spammers are bad people!--76.212.144.106 (talk) 00:01, 24 May 2014 (UTC)

Shut down?

I could be wrong, but I see no information on when or why this site was shut down, which seem like important details to include. 71.11.5.2 (talk) 13:40, 18 July 2022 (UTC)

:I was thinking along the same lines. And when did it close? Reading the article suggests it was still running in April 2010, but nothing after that. So has it been defunct for a decade or more, or did it close last week? Lugnuts Fire Walk with Me 15:08, 18 July 2022 (UTC)

:There are no sources that say when it was shut down. ArcticSeeress (talk) 15:09, 18 July 2022 (UTC)

Undue emphasis

The reception section appears to provide undue weight on the views of individual police officers and minor police departments. :3 F4U (they/it) 00:38, 9 August 2023 (UTC)

:Maybe. What changes are you proposing for the article in light of your concerns? ArcticSeeress (talk) 12:09, 10 August 2023 (UTC)
